SPA development is everywhere because you can charge a lot more for it, and web development has become commoditized in many other arenas

Sanity is available immediately if you are willing to be paid less. There are tons of simple, non-SPA, non-stack-on-stack projects out there, they just usually pay 1/10th the complex stuff.

Sorry not to have made this clear: I am not a frontend developer. I'm a backend/infra developer who's forced to work on a React app abandoned by a frontend developer who incorporated their own wrappers-of-wrappers-of-wrappers.

Meanwhile the client is telling me is virtually impossible to find frontend devs willing to write HTML.

Almost any developer familiar with HTML would be willing to write HTML if they were paid similarly to making something flashy in React (to use your example)

Because I don't believe this is a real issue in the marketplace, I will write HTML for your client if they are truly unable to find someone. Writing HTML would be the easiest paid job I could imagine in my field right now.
